Fire officials aim to promote fire safety during the upcoming home heating season by providing the right tools for fire prevention along with information to keep families safe during the holidays.

Today, Wausau Daily Herald staff members and local firefighters are giving away $5,000 in free smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, donated by the newspaper and Gannett Foundation, at the Wausau and Weston fire departments for Make a Difference Day. And on Thanksgiving Day, the Wausau Fire Department will kick off its annual Keep the Wreath Green campaign.
